The Angelelli/Taylor family also have a longstanding relationship with Dallara, so even if GM smiles equally on the two teams, perhaps they have an edge with Dallara?

Now would that explain the domination the team displayed at COTA? Perhaps it's a combination of seeing the Taylor brothers enter their prime (which has been a pleasure to watch), extra testing and development time with Cadillac, and a better relationship with Dallara.

Also keep in mind, Long Beach and COTA are sprint races. Perhaps WTR dialed things back at the endurance races, and is unleashing the beast now. AXR has the reputation of a very conservative group focused on execution, perhaps at the expense of ultimate pace.
